Somebody's beatin' on an ancient drum
Somebody's preppin' up the scene for fun
Everyone's feelin' the quickenin' pace
Everyone's dreamin' of their own embrace
The streets outside are turnin' blue
The night's slips in and so do you
We're all craving what we don't got
We didn't get what we thought we ought
But that's the way it was meant to be
So sip this drink and meet Devi
We trashed the time we couldn't use
We clinked dark glasses we drank for truth
I'll see you in the morning light
I'll hear you talk of strange delights
Mystic vision cold pain and fire
She burned down your house and made true the liar
You go, return, face the daily mail
Seein' who's at the head now and who wags the tail
The world rolls on still seems the same
But underneath everything has changed
You're thinkin' you're tough
You're thinkin' you're steal
Your words so rough
You're thinkin' they're real
Each day of our lives stretch toward the end
We try to find ways to begin again
We try to bargain, we try to conspire
But we know in the end
She'll make true the liar
Ah, the journey is long yet we're already there
Our myths are destroyed beyond repair
Fresh ones flow from an ancient brew
We are the many of the chosen few
We try to bargain, we try to conspire
But we know in the end
She'll make true the liar
